Abstract

We propose group communication as an efficient mechanism to support fault tolerance. Our approach is based on an efficient reliable broadcast protocol that requires on average only two messages per broadcast. To illustrate our approach we will describe how the task bag model can be made fault-tolerant using group communication.
